Age of Trioceros deremensis and quadricornis in captivity

[Motherlode Chameleon]

What is about the life expectancy of these two species in captivity (captive bred)? Between 5 to 7 years?

I have only got minimal experience with these two neat species. Has anyone that is working with or has worked with got an estimate of age? Mine is for males 5 to 7 years can anyone confirm that this is accurate?

don't T. deremensis live longer than quads?

Quads...I think they can live longer than this....

In captivity, a healthy quad can live for over 5 years.

Deremensis can live for at least 5 years as well.

I am not sure how long they live but I currently have 2 females, one wild caught as an adult, I received Tuffy 5/6/09 and one captive bred, Jet I received 6/12/09 she will be 1 year 3/23/10. I will be getting a wild caught male, if the weather here is ever warm en ought.

I am also getting a pair of cb deremensis, weather allowing. damn Montana weather, it is 10 & snowing again.

Wait a while, I will let you know in a few years.

The weather may be tuff in winter, however, Big Sky Country in the summer is a sight to behold.
